PREDICTING THE SEVERITY OF BRONCHIOLITIS IN A RESOURCE-POOR SETTING [PDF]
Introduction: Bronchiolitis is the leading acute viral infection in infants. Early diagnosis and determination of severity of bronchiolitis in children is crucial for rapid initiation of treatment.

The influence of air pollutants on the risk of emergency department presentations of infants with bronchiolitis in an European air quality hotspot. [PDF]
Abstract Background Acute bronchiolitis is the leading cause of hospitalization in infants, and air pollutants represent a risk factor for its development. This work aims to investigate the role of air pollution, considering conventional and nonconventional indicators, in the development of bronchiolitis in three urban areas in the Po Valley, Northern ...

Respiratory Related Hospitalization in Children With Exposure to Meconium Aspiration or Staining. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background We investigated whether neonates exposed to meconium had a higher risk of respiratory hospitalization in childhood. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 1,271,563 children with 6,334,857 person‐years of follow‐up between birth and age 5 years in Quebec, Canada from 2006 to 2022.

Aim To determine the prevalence of high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy in infants presenting to hospital in Australia and New Zealand with bronchiolitis over four bronchiolitis seasons. Secondary aims were to determine temporal trends in HFNC use, and associations between HFNC, hospital length of stay (LOS) and intensive care unit (ICU) admission ...

Bronchiolitis is a distressing, potentially life-threatening respiratory condition that affects young babies. Around 2-3% of all infants younger than 1 year are admitted to hospital with bronchiolitis, usually during the seasonal epidemic. The majority of these infants are infected with respiratory syncytial virus and all have an intense inflammatory ...

Factors associated with mild bronchiolitis in young infants
Objective Bronchiolitis within the first 3 months of life is a risk factor for more severe illness. We aimed to identify characteristics associated with mild bronchiolitis in infants ≤90 days old presenting to the emergency department (ED).

GDDS: Pulmonary Bronchioles Segmentation with Group Deep Dense Supervision [PDF]
Airway segmentation, especially bronchioles segmentation, is an important but challenging task because distal bronchus are sparsely distributed and of a fine scale. Existing neural networks usually exploit sparse topology to learn the connectivity of bronchioles and inefficient shallow features to capture such high-frequency information, leading to the

Background Acute viral bronchiolitis is one of the most common causes of hospitalisation during infancy in our region with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) historically being the major causative agent. Many infants with early-life RSV bronchiolitis have

Acute viral bronchiolitis is a common viral lower respiratory tract infection in young children. Most typically caused by respiratory syncytial virus in 70% of cases, the condition lasts for 4 to 7 days, with a prolonged cough in many. Children with comorbidity, particularly those born prematurely or with significant congenital heart disease, are at ...
